The Philharmonic's 2023-2024 Junior Board Member, Alexis Drozdowski, has been recognized in the Press & Sun-Bulletin for her volunteer work as an advocate for inclusivity. Alexis, a Binghamton High School senior, is dedicated to Deaf culture and education, and will be pursuing a career as an American Sign Language interpreter.
An excerpt:
“It’s important that everyone has equal opportunity,” she said. “Accessibility is a big part of that . . . People don’t always have that voice to stand up for themselves. It's important to have more people trying to help.”
Alexis is helping many, and we are grateful for the passion and vision she's brought to her work for the Philharmonic. We congratulate Alexis and wish her well in all her endeavors!
